In the bowl of an electric stand mixer with a dough hook, mix together the water, honey, oil, yeast, and salt.

Mix in about 1 ½ cups flour, then gradually add more until a soft dough forms and clears the sides of the bowl. The dough will be soft, smooth, and tacky, but should not stick to fingers.

Step 2: Knead dough

Let the dough knead in the mixer for about 2-3 minutes. (If kneading by hand, it will take 5-6 minutes.) Then cover the dough and let the dough rest for 10 minutes.

Step 3: Shape pizza dough

After the dough has rested, split the crust dough into three equal portions.

Now, roll out the dough onto a piece of parchment paper or a silicone mat and shape it into a pizza disc shape.

Then lightly prick the surface of the dough with a fork, to help prevent bubbles while baking.

Step 4: Bake pizza crust
